In your original note:
dependencies:
- { role: pythonapp, when: is_legacy is not defined }
- { role: rubyapp, when: is_legacy is defined }
If pythonapp and rubyapp share a common dependency like the role
"dbaccess" then when pythonapp gets skipped, it currently sets the
dbaccess role to be skipped even though rubyapp depends on it.
====
What I'm saying is in your playbook, do this:
roles:
- { role: pythonapp, when: is_legacy is not defined }
- { role: rubyapp, when: is_legacy is defined }
In this case, the common dep would not be skipped inadvertantly.
